R&D ENGINEER - ELECTRIC TRANSDUCER DESIGN

At Oticon Medical, our mission is simple: to bring the joy of sound to people with hearing impairments. Every day, we strive to push the boundaries of what’s possible, creating innovative and life-changing hearing solutions that help people hear the sounds that make life beautiful. We’re looking for an R&D Engineer to join our team in Askim, Sweden and help us develop cutting-edge transducer designs for bone-conduction implant systems.
As an R&D Engineer specializing in electromagnetic and piezoelectric transducers, you’ll be a key player in the development of our next-generation Bone Anchored Hearing Systems (BAHS). Working from concept to launch, you’ll design, prototype, and improve transducers that will be at the heart of our life-changing hearing implants. You’ll collaborate with a passionate and multi-disciplinary team of experts in electromagnetics, electronics, mechanics, and acoustics to create solutions that redefine sound quality, efficiency, and size.
If you’re driven by the opportunity to solve complex technical challenges while contributing to meaningful innovations, this is the role for you.
